I've been thinking about this for a long time, but have never had the desire to put my thoughts to paper (er, screen) about this until now. For reasons that I don't want known at the moment, I'll be keeping part of this veiled in secrecy, so don't get all up in arms about why I'm being somewhat vague about certain things here.
I'm very annoyed. I'm annoyed with people who are supposed to be good, honest, caring people who are letting those who may be less than that represent them. No, I'm not talking about politics, but unfortunately, the situation has become political. WHY the need for a power play lately? It makes those of us who are on the fringe feel even MORE on the fringe.
I feel that some people are being dishonest with those they are dealing with. THIS is not the group that I love. These kind of actions are those of power-hungry individuals who want to have things their way or the highway. Really? Is THIS the best way to be dealing with this? THIS will not make for a stronger whole, but rather, I think, it will be cutting up an already shaky, unstable group of people and helping those who are on the fringe to feel like NOW is the time to jump ship. You DON'T help a struggling ship sail by gutting it. By telling people who are working on the ship that they'll be leaving port ...only to sail away in the middle of the night without them.
Yes, I'm frustrated. Yes, I may jump ship. I don't want to take lots of years of my life and have to start over... but how many times do you put up with this crap and hang on for a better day? At what point do you just say "it's been a good run, but it's time to part ways"?
